PAMIQ VRChat

English | 日本語

Interface for PAMIQ to interact with VRChat.

✨ Features

• Visual Input: Capture VRChat gameplay through OBS virtual camera with the ImageSensor
• Mouse Control: Simulate mouse movements and clicks with natural-feeling transitions using MouseActuator and SmoothMouseActuator
• Avatar Control: Send OSC commands to VRChat for avatar movement, jumping, and actions via OscActuator and SmoothOscActuator
• Smooth Transitions: Natural-feeling controls with gradual acceleration and realistic button timings
• PAMIQ Integration: Seamlessly works with PAMIQ-Core for AI agent development

📦 Installation

Note

If Linux 🐧 user, install inputtino first which is a required dependency.

# Install via pip
pip install pamiq-vrchat

# Install from source
git clone https://github.com/MLShukai/pamiq-vrchat.git
cd pamiq-vrchat
pip install .

🛠️ Setup VRChat Environment

Prerequisites

• Linux or Windows machine with Desktop environment.
• Machine capable of running VRChat

Install Steam

Download and install Steam from the official website.

(🐧 Linux User Only) Enable Proton

Open Steam → Settings → Compatibility and enable Enable Steam Play for all other titles.

(Optional) Install Proton GE

If you want to use video players in VRChat on Linux, install Proton GE.

After installation, select GE-Proton as the compatibility tool in Steam → Settings → Compatibility under Run other titles with:.

Install VRChat

Add VRChat to your library from the Steam store and install it.

After install, launch VRChat and login.

Setup OBS

For OBS installation and virtual camera setup, refer to pamiq-io documentation.

Note

The Output (Scaled) Resolution and FPS Value in OBS Video settings will affect the output of the ImageSensor class.

Capture the VRChat window in OBS and enable the virtual camera.

You can also use our pre-configured Scene Collection. Import it from the OBS Scene Collection tab → Import, and ensure the checkbox is checked.

Enable OSC

1. Open the "Launch Pad" (press the Esc key)
2. Go to the main menu
3. Open settings (click the ⚙️ icon)
4. Click Search all settings and type "OSC", then press Enter
5. Enable the OSC button

🎮 Running the Sample Project

After setting up VRChat environment and cloning this repository, you can run the sample project. It trains an agent that interacts with VRChat.

• For Linux Users

  # Run the sample
  ./run-sample.linux.sh

• For Windows Users

  # Run the sample (in PowerShell)
  .\Run-Sample.Windows.ps1
  # Or Bypass execution policy.
  powershell -noexit -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\Run-Sample.Windows.ps1

These scripts will:

• Check and install dependencies automatically
• Verify CUDA availability
• Check if VRChat and OBS are running
• Start the keyboard control interface (pamiq-kbctl)
• Launch the autonomous learning agent

Important

Mouse Control Notice: When the agent starts, it will take control of your mouse for VRChat interaction. To pause the system, press Alt+Shift+P. This is essential for regaining mouse control when needed.

For detailed implementation, see src/run_sample.py which contains the architecture, hyperparameters and training procedure.

🚀 Quick Examples

Image Sensor

from pamiq_vrchat.sensors import ImageSensor

# Connect to OBS virtual camera automatically
sensor = ImageSensor()
# Or specify a camera index
# sensor = ImageSensor(camera_index=0)
# (Windows only) you can specify width and height
# sensor = ImageSensor(width=1920, height=1080)

# Capture a frame
frame = sensor.read()
# frame is a numpy array with shape (height, width, channels)

Mouse Control

Note

When using mouse control, remember to keep the VRChat game window focused (selected) on your desktop.

from pamiq_vrchat.actuators import MouseActuator, MouseButton, SmoothMouseActuator

# Basic mouse control
mouse = MouseActuator()
# Move mouse at 100 pixels/sec horizontally, 50 pixels/sec vertically
mouse.operate({"move_velocity": (100.0, 50.0)})
# Click the left button
mouse.operate({"button_press": {MouseButton.LEFT: True}})
# Release the left button
mouse.operate({"button_press": {MouseButton.LEFT: False}})

# Smooth mouse control with gradual acceleration and natural-feeling clicks
smooth_mouse = SmoothMouseActuator(
    delta_time=0.05,     # Update interval
    time_constant=0.2,   # Movement smoothing
    press_delay=0.05,    # Button press delay
    release_delay=0.1    # Button release delay
)
smooth_mouse.operate({"move_velocity": (100.0, 50.0)})

OSC Avatar Control

from pamiq_vrchat.actuators import OscActuator, OscAxes, OscButtons, SmoothOscActuator

# Basic OSC control
osc = OscActuator()
# Move forward
osc.operate({"axes": {OscAxes.Vertical: 1.0}})
# Jump
osc.operate({"buttons": {OscButtons.Jump: True}})
# Move forward while running
osc.operate({
    "axes": {OscAxes.Vertical: 1.0},
    "buttons": {OscButtons.Run: True}
})

# Smooth OSC control for more natural movement
smooth_osc = SmoothOscActuator(
    delta_time=0.05,     # Update interval
    time_constant=0.2,   # Axis value smoothing
    press_delay=0.05,    # Button press delay
    release_delay=0.1    # Button release delay
)
smooth_osc.operate({"axes": {OscAxes.Vertical: 0.5}})
